Abstract

The paper extends a microscopic relaxation-time-approximation treatment of graphene electron-fluid shear viscosity to finite magnetic field, showing that the field induces anisotropy and splits the viscosity into five independent coefficients. The authors compare graphene, non-relativistic electron fluid, and ultra-relativistic quark fluid cases and estimate the magnetic field strengths required for noticeable viscous response.
